Thanks, like I said we have both emailed him so ..... we'll give him a bit maybe he works in mysterious ways ..... and obtains pairs from floating stray cargo from afar .... LOL

Good luck with them I'm sure you'll enjoy them for a long time to come.

Were yours B Stock ?

yeah mine are B-stock

they have some graying on them from being placed in the bags too soon after the finish was applied but 90% of the discoloration is on the bottom of the speaker so you can't even tell  ;D speakers were brand new otherwise, still in the factory boxes and velour bags

sexy bitches!
thats a 2nd pair i'd own.  they are just a smidge too small for my living room.  I bet now that I have better amplification than I did back when i ran mine....., it'd be different.

I have been told that stand mounted speakers will not pass the GAF or I would sell my B&W's for a pair...

Albert has had a shipping container sitting in customs for a while now because he cannot afford to get the shipment out, thus the discontinuation of the overseas made speakers. Good speakers, bad businessman unfortunately.
